Title: Programmable logic device including programmable interface core and central processing unit
Inventor: DAO KHANG KIM
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 2002-04-17
Granted: 2010-08-10
Abstract: A programmable logic device (PLD) includes a central processing unit (CPU) and a programmable interface coupled to the CPU, wherein the programmable interface includes a core designated by a user. The programmable interface core allows devices, both on and off-chip, to communicate with the CPU. In one embodiment, the programmable interface core includes a crosspoint switch for coupling a plurality of devices and the CPU. Re-programmability of the PLD provides significant flexibility in providing features that can be parameterized based on the user's needs and/or associated design. Specifically, these parameterized features can be implemented in programmable resources on the PLD, thereby allowing these features to be modified at any time. Moreover, only those resources actually needed for the programmable interface core need be implemented, thereby allowing the user to optimize use of the remainder of the PLD. Finally, the functions of the processor local bus can be efficiently limited, thereby allowing the PLD to approach the performance level of an ASIC.
